It is a fact that it is my nature to keep moving things
around in my home. My coffee table was quite minimalist two months back with
this beautiful porcelain box in the center. But around the Diwali eve I decided
to infuse a bit of colour to my coffee table. So I added a bit of red and gold
through my tealight holders , my India circus tray and a money-plant creeper for
a pop of green. And you will always find books as an element of décor for
texture and depth and to add to the whole cozy feel.

Have a look at my coffee table before and after pictures and let me know what you think.

Before Picture: very minimalistic

After Picture: Added a lot of elements to bring colour

Added money plant for a pop of green

tealight holders for warmth

Two of my favorite books and you will always find my teacup around

And this is how my table looks!

If you have any home tweaking projects with some before and
after pictures, please email me at tbinspirations@gmail.com and I will gladly share it on Tickled by Inspirations wall. Have a good day
and a fabulous week ahead!

Today’s home tour is all the way from Massachusetts. Vinaya's home is what defines a calm retreat. I have fallen in love with Vinaya’s impeccable two
bedroom apartment. Vinaya is a décor blogger and she is the author of Hip Hip Home. Her blog is full of interiors, décor and DIY inspirations.

Vinaya's apartment is predominantly neutral in color with
white walls and has a clever mix of different shades of blues through beautiful artwork, pillows, throws and eye-catchy
textural patterns used in each room. I love the perfect blend of modern and eclectic
elements and the plants that is used to brighten up her space. My eyes were fixated
on the monochrome picture collage effect on the wall giving a harmonious effect
in her home. The dining area and the
open shelving décor are other areas where you are bound to stop and admire
again and again. Her collection and display of eclectic pieces can be seen on her coffee
table, shelves and walls. Have a look at her
home and let’s hear more from Vinaya herself.

What
is your source of inspiration to do up your home?

For the longest time I didn't really care much about
decorating or design. But a couple of years ago I took a little break from work
and found myself spending more time inside our home. That's when I felt a very
strong need to create a home that I loved being in. So it's safe to say that
the inspiration came from within!

What
is your favorite décor style?

My favorite
décor style is modern but comfortable and cozy.

Do
you have any favorite décor accent or favorite corner in your space?

We love our living room with our big white fluffy
rug. We are almost always hanging out there. But be warned, it does take a good
amount of effort to keep that rug looking fluffy and white-ish!

Tips for our décor
lovers

There is no right way to decorate. The only right way is
what you love and what makes sense to you. I think if you decorate purely based
on what you love, then it will always be trendy to you and that's all that
matters :)

Thank you Vinaya for sharing your beautiful calm space with
me and my readers!! Your home definitely has a calming effect to us all!
